Description: We’re already a few weeks into the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season. (Yeah, we can’t believe it either.) During episode 2, Maureen sits down with Shane Ratliff from the City’s Office of Emergency Management to talk about how residents can best prepare for an impending storm and how the City responds before, during and after different types of disasters. Do you know what it means when the City “activates” before an emergency event? Shane breaks it down. Do you know you can receive alerts about important weather events? Shane shows us how. We can get through another hurricane season together when we know our zone, make a plan, build a kit and stay informed. Hurricane season runs June 1-Nov. 30.
